Anybody else glue together all their scraps this Christmas and call it a gift? I save all the scrap I generate from cutting board appropriate woods, and usually once a year make done end grain cutting boards if I haven't found a better use for the stuff.

Accomplished on the bandsaw and cleaned up with a handplaneAs always these are “triple sanded” – wet and knock back the raised grain a few times with 1k grit until the grain doesn't raise anymore. This technique is the secret to making good kitchen implements, in my opinion.
